Pieve di San Leolino

San Leolino Parish

Characterized by typical elements of Romanesque architecture that trace its construction between the eleventh and twelfth centuries, the parish church of San Leolino has been renovated several times over the centuries. The current sober interior is the result of a restoration, started in 1883, thanks to which the eighteenth-century additions and the frame in-fill wall of the arches were eliminated.

The parish church preserves numerous works: on the right altar is the fragmentary detached fresco of the Madonna della Consolazione by Bicci di Lorenzo of the beginning of the 15th century; the baptismal font in glazed terracotta from the workshop of Santi Buglioni (early 16th century) and the Assumption of the Virgin with Saints Lorenzo and Sixtus II by Marco Confortini.
